The Miami native, in the twilight years of his MMA career, might boost his title credentials with a win against the Brazilian at the Miami-Dade Arena in Miami. However, the recently announced next in line for the title shot, Covington intends to exact revenge after the one-year anniversary of their altercation outside a Miami restaurant.

Notably, the 35-year-old subtly dropped hints at the UFC 287 plans in a conversation with Submission Radio.
